What does gender have to do with it? maybe because most wives or girlfriends are of the female persuasion. at least for a little while longer.

Second wife bought me a Byrdland for a wedding present. Still didn't last. Current partner is half my age and twice as smart. She has names for all my instruments — and I do mean ALL. Might stick around. lol ... my 1st wife liked a few of my "friends" better than guitars 2nd wife liked a singer better than guitars 3rd wife bought me a PRS Custom 24 & a Les Paul Standard Goldtop ... and told me I am to never sell my white Les Paul Custom ...

Sgt. Pepper Posted June 3, 2021 Share Posted June 3, 2021 (edited) My wife likes my guitars and thinks they are really nice. She doesn't play, but loves music (even though she is a Garth fan). She has her hobbies and I got mine. She bought me my 12 string Martin, so I'm ready for the next one that you want to buy me. A 000-28EC would work. Edited June 3, 2021 by Sgt.

Seems like a trend.... My first wife was a groupie.... when I got out of music...she remained a groupie..... strange.....she left me for a guy who doesn't even play! P.S. She did me the biggest favor she ever could have! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Notes_Norton Posted June 3, 2021 Share Posted June 3, 2021 Yes. My wife also plays guitar. If I want a new guitar, she will agree and say that I need one because she knows she will get to play it too!!! Notes 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Retired Posted June 4, 2021 Share Posted June 4, 2021 11 hours ago, Whitefang said: I'm guessing she'd rather sew quilts while hearing you play your guitars than quilting in your hospital room while waiting for you to wake up from the coma you went into from a drag racing accident. Whitefang Well, she did start nagging me to quit racing. Her thoughts were if something happened, then John would have no daddy. My partner in racing stole the race car anyway and sold it before I knew it was being done. The guy was paying payments to Alan and when the last payment was delivered, the car was gone. So that was what put me out of drag racing. In spite of that high wheel stand, I thought I handled it very good. I thought I blew a Slick in back as it kept wanting to take a hard right so I just went slow through the quarter mile. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
merciful-evans Posted June 4, 2021 Share Posted June 4, 2021 She loves me to play. But like guitars? I don't think she especially does. Though she did like the look of the Fender TC90 I briefly had. My last woman merely tolerated my playing. So yes, it's nice that she wants me to play. Trouble is she often asks me to sing as well.

Larsongs Posted June 4, 2021 Share Posted June 4, 2021 I started singing at birth I think, maybe in the womb.. I’ve always loved to sing... I bought a Guitar to accompany me... I used to think singing was more important than the Guitar.. My focus & concentration was Singing first & good accompaniment second.. I endeavored to be a good Rhythm Guitarist.. All these years later it’s still pretty much the same but I have been working harder to get better on Guitar.. The Guitar is one of the most amazing creations of all time! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigtim Posted June 4, 2021 Share Posted June 4, 2021 It is funny. At first she only thought they looked pretty. Now she has an interest in shopping for them with me. She enjoys it!! A better question would be, does your wife like your guitar playing?? You may be surprised at the answers!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not too crazy about his politics....but performers should keep their political opinions to themselves, (except for protest songs, etc.).

I could care less than a squirt of p-iss about his political ramblings (I thought I bought a ticket to a rock concert not a Trump rally) and wow he shot with a cross bow on stage a stationary cardboard cut out of Saddam Hussein. I was impressed with that act of male-nitude. Edited June 4, 2021 by Sgt. Pepper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanvillRob Posted June 4, 2021 Share Posted June 4, 2021 Just now, Fish Crumpet said: Thanks for the clarification. One often sees bias in these matters on both 'sides'. Good to see someone who can separate talent from ideology. I harbor great distaste for Wagner's views on race, but his music is sublime. Similarly with Nugent. He's an OK player. Other than "Cat Scratch Fever", not sure I could name another Nuge song.... but I know DOZENS of Joan Baez songs.....I actually do "Diamonds And Rust".... saw her open for The Stones at The Cow Palace....I hate her politics, but think she's a good person and a great performer..... LOVE Nuge's politics....would be honored to back him up sometime. I feel entertainers who let their politics be known are eliminating a large percentage of their respective fans.....when actually, they don't live the 'normal live' we live, and don't really have a clue as to what life is all about.

We adults can hide in our homes for a year and that's tough....but a 7 year old kid will never be 7 again, and they missed out on 14% of their entire life's experience.... may affect them for the rest of their lives! And of course, the old folks in rest homes who's families couldn't visit, I'm sure, felt abandoned....and many passed away without having their loved ones near. All because of a bad flu. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
